Synopsis: New York Times Bestseller: The death of a diplomat leads two DC cops into &“an absorbing puzzle&” (The Washington Weekly). British Ambassador to the US Geoffrey James is a shady sort, prone to womanizing and taking financial advantage of his contacts. When he drops dead at his own gala party, everyone suspects the ambassador&’s Iranian valet, Nuri Hafez—who has conveniently disappeared. But Washington Metro&’s Cpt. Sal Morizio and his fellow officer, Connie Lake, are convinced there&’s something far more sinister going on. The Associated Press raved that Murder on Embassy Row moved Margaret Truman, daughter of President Harry Truman, into &“the international spy genre . . . and she&’s good.&” This engrossing and exotic tale of mystery suspense will keep readers guessing as they enjoy a look inside the world of politics, diplomacy, and espionage. &“Truman has settled firmly into a career of writing murder mysteries, all evoking brilliantly the Washington she knows so well.&” —The Houston Post
